Managing Widgets

Widgets are small applications that can be included in a view in the Dashboard page. Each widget is displayed in the page as a small rectangle. Depending on your user permissions, you may be able to add widgets to a view, move widgets from one location to another within a view, modify the settings of widgets, minimize widgets, and remove widgets from a View.

Various types of widgets can be included in a view:

The Gauge and Report widgets can be configured to display information about a variety of topics, so you may find it useful to include more than one of them in a single view, or to create multiple views in which these widgets display different data.
